Due to the troubles that killer whales, polar bears and large sharks have been having, seal populations are growing rapidly. Last year, only 8% of the quota for seals was harvested and less is expected to be harvested while populations continue to grow. Fisheries Canada is worried about cod stocks not recovering due to the increased predation of seals who no longer have traditional fish species in sufficient numbers for them to eat. This might be OK for a few years but eventually seals are going to start suffering starvation. I am wondering of ways to intervene or if it is morally acceptable to let nature cull the seals with starvation and disease.

The situation is caused by humans, because they directly or indirectly killed the predators.So humans should intervene to avoid the seals will die of starvation after have consumed all the fishes.The solution is trying to restore the original equilibrium, introducing again in that environment the predators of the seals: whales, polar bears and large sharks.

Sorry, I can't see other solutions.

So laws to protect whales, polar bears and sharks from unlimited hunting and fishing.

Umm polar bears in the region ARE protected from unlimited hunting, and have been for quite a few years. There is still the issue even with the protections.
